Ernesto Guevara, also known as Che, was once a very noble man back when he lived in South America, mainly Argentina. He had a girlfriend in Chile which he travelled to, via motorcycle. He had planned a trip to visit her, but along the way, he got of course and visited other places. Che ended up in Mexico, to pursue his dreams of being a doctor. Che was a very smart man but he was played easily. Che met Fidel Castro in Mexico, and immediately Castro knew that he need Che Guevara in his life. They went and planned out how to capture Cuba back, because Fidel was originally kicked out. They rallied up an army and attacked, and became victorious. While they were in the middle of this war, Castro made Che a commander in their military, which is shown by the gold star on his beret. After the war they were successful and recaptured Cuba, Castro was automatically put in charge and was the leader, and Che was made a new citizen to Cuba. While Che was happy that their plan came to a success, Castro was even happier because he knew he could control Che with no problems. Castro sent Che everywhere to do his dirty work, to talk to people and make deals with other leaders, all while Castro sat back and watched and made Cuba a horrible place. When Che was out in Bolivia, Castro pulled out a letter Che once was wrote to him and read it aloud in front of the entire nation of Cuba which is very embarrassing and disrespected all trust they once had. After this happening Che never did come back. Che was sent into a trap and was soon after killed by their army. Che lived to the age of 39 years old. Not that long of a life, but he did have many great adventures. His down fall was when he sided with Castro to take Cuba, he should have just followed his dreams and became a doctor the one true dream that would have lead to true happiness for everyone.
Che Guevara. Good Father? (Andres Prince) Ernesto Che Guevara was always on the move and always working on something new. He was an extremely busy man with no time on his hands, but still managed to be the father of six children. Could he have been a good father during his time as a revolutionary? The answer is absolutely not. He was a very busy man and hardly had time for anything outside his work, so why would he have so many kids. After being banished from Cuba and not being able to return he spent a lot of time apart from his children. A lot more time than he already did while he was around. Che left without telling his family where he was going. The only person that knew where the young revolutionary was headed was Fidel Castro, who later on betrayed him by reading the letter Che Wrote about leaving and never coming back. The letter stated that he was never to return to Cuba again and that he just wanted to leave. After he was banished there was no way of him having any contact with his children in Cuba. At this point he was completely out of the picture and was never to return to Cuba and see his family and children again. So was he a good father figure? The answer is no.
(Che with his wife and several of his children) Newly Found Interview between Ernesto “Che” Guevara and Captors!(Melanie Campbell)
Captor: What even made you decide to go into guerilla warfare?
Che: I was a medical student when I went on a trip throughout South America. Some of the things I saw got me thinking about what is wrong with these places. People were oppressed and they needed someone to speak for them, and to lead them in a fight for their rights.
Captor: How were they oppressed? Che: One case I remember well was a visit to a copper mine in Chile. The government and the industry owners were in a battle over the mines and something, which was never accounted for, were the workers. No one spoke up for them when they were going to become victims of a political battle. Captor: I see. Well, what led you to come to Bolivia? Why did you need to be here? Che: You are probably thinking that I am ignorant. Well, you are right. I was not fully informed of Bolivia’s political status. I had supporters, but organization was poor and things were not executed as well as we hoped. Captor: What about Castro? Did he have any part of you being here? Che: I sent him a letter which stated that I would not be returning to Cuba. I told him not to read that letter to the public, but he did anyway. After that, there was no way I could return without looking like a hypocrite to the whole nation. Since then, I have been looking for places like Bolivia, where I could lead in guerilla warfare.
